James Alexander
James Alexander was a veteran who served in the 127th United States Colored Infantry with Company I. It is not confirmed whether this individual's name was strictly "James Alexander" or "James H. Alexander"; census records and archival material use either name. He was born around 1843 in Franklin County, Pennsylvania to parents, Cale and Amelia (unconfirmed) Alexander.1 The "U.S. Find A Grave Index, 1600s to Current for James Henry Alexander" claims his mother, Amelia, was born in Virginia, and his father was born in Maryland.2
